Great Service – Highly Recommend!

I recently used Lyons Bowe Solicitors for their will-writing service through the Will Aid initiative, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The team was incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to explain everything clearly and ensuring that my wishes were accurately reflected in my will.
Not only did they provide an outstanding legal service, but their participation in the Will Aid initiative also showed their commitment to giving back to the community—a fantastic bonus! Their friendly and approachable manner made what could have been a daunting process feel effortless.
I highly recommend Lyons Bowe Solicitors to anyone looking for expert legal guidance with a personal touch. Thank you for your excellent service!

Not the expected situation but thereafter explained

I left a review following my experience with Lyons Bowe expressing displeasure at the service - notably the speed of the process and the difficulty with which to get hold of solictors working at the firm.

I have since had a reply to confirm that our case was completed within an average amount of time.

Further, the managing director of the firm took time to review my case and share his findings with me. Though there were frustrations at finding it hard to get responses from some of the solicitors on our case, the delays had been caused due to our buyer’s solictors.

Having the details explained to me was appreciated, and I can see now that this was not at the fault of Lyons Bowe.

I appreciated the response from Paul Lyons and the time he took to review the case and explain this to me in more detail.

Will writing

Lyons Bowe provided a will writing service as part of Will Aid. I found them extremely efficient, helpful and very pleasant to deal with. They made the process very straightforward and guided me gently through it all. I was very happy with the service.

Will Aid

We found Lyons Bowe Solicitors when searching how to do our will during Will Aid month. They responded very quickly and organised an appointment. The person speaking with us was lovely and our wills were drafted super quick. The firm then ensured everything was sorted after. This was our first experience dealing with our wills and they made it very easy overall. I am very thankful that they participate in Will Aid!

About this branch

Description

When we set up Lyons Bowe in 2014, we were driven by a mix of frustration and desire. Frustration at the number of firms that didn’t share the values that we felt were most important and our desire to give clients the kind of service that you told us you wanted. Our core values underpin our entire service and lie at the heart of everything we offer. As a modern law firm, we pride ourselves on representing these core values – both in what we do and how we do it.
